Chapter 375: Chapter 376 The Mistress’s Fate (5)
Ye Wuchen’s smile grew warmer and his arms wrapped tighter around the woman beside him.
“Muer, then let’s hurry and have a few more, so no one feels too lonely.”
A few more?
Mu Ruyue’s eyes widened. Did this guy think she was a pig?
Before she could retort, he was upon her, unleashing all the longing and desire built up over the days, becoming one with the woman…
Compared to the deep affection here, Lin Ruoying was in profound torment.
Pain!
At that moment, she experienced a tearing, heart-wrenching pain!
It wasn’t the agony of her internal organs being battered but as if searing flames were burning her body, causing her immense pain.
Lin Ruoying bit her lip tightly, her body beginning to tremble slightly.
Bang!
The door was thrust open, and as Lin Ruoying turned to look, her eyes suddenly brimmed with fear on seeing the youth at the entrance.
The cool moonlight draped over the youth’s tall figure, and with the night breeze brushing by, the silver robe fluttered softly. There was a breathtaking beauty about this young man, one that rendered him impossible to overlook…
However, in the youth’s hand was a man—bulky and ugly, with a hideous scar slashing across his face, a flattened nose, and thick lips that made one’s stomach churn just by looking at him.
Such a burly man was held effortlessly in the youth’s hand as if he were carrying a bag of trash.
“What… what do you want to do now?”
Lin Ruoying screamed in terror. She wanted to shout for help, but at that moment, a powerful suppression descended, rendering her unable to make a sound…
“I’ve come to help you,” Zi Qianjing lifted his gaze, speaking coldly, “That Elixir was once refined by my mother. I secretly kept a few. To this day, only she knows how to neutralize its effects. Unfortunately, my mother has lost her memory, and even she doesn’t remember how to alleviate your suffering. However, there is a method that doesn’t require any power to help you.”
Zi Qianjing’s lips curled into a sinister smile, “That method is to use a man to detoxify you!”
Lin Ruoying’s eyes widened in shock, her mouth agape in fear.
An aphrodisiac? Could it be that he had given her an aphrodisiac? Only with an aphrodisiac could a man act as an antidote.
Detecting what she might be about to say, Zi Qianjing scoffed, “Don’t compare Flames Elixir to cheap drugs like aphrodisiacs. Aphrodisiacs would only make you feel more comfortable, with a one-time solution to the poison, but Flames Elixir makes you feel agonizingly alive as if your entire body were burning. Using a man can temporarily detoxify you, yet by the next evening, it will recur. This cycle will keep repeating itself. It was an Elixir my mother inadvertently created when a refinement failed. She was eager to experiment with all unknown Elixirs. However, even with her skills, it took her three days to develop an antidote after identifying its ingredients. As for others, it would take years to figure it out.”
Gazing at the fear in Lin Ruoying’s eyes, Zi Qianjing’s voice was merciless and cruel, plunging one instantly into hell.
Being the first night, I kindly came to offer you a way to detoxify, from here on out, you’ll need to find men to resolve it yourself. Of course, Flames Elixir has its requirements for the men—it must be men of hideous appearance that can detoxify you. If they’re handsome and refined, they’ll only intensify your pain. You might endure a night, but Flames Elixir will scorch your skin and mar your looks, and seeking out handsome men to worsen the flames will have the same effect.”
Of course, Zi Qianjing’s words were meant to scare her. Since it was about avenging his mother, the crueler, the better—and this was the fate befitting a homewrecker!
